Comment by Arraken

There are 3 different tailoring specializations. One deals with Shadowcloth, one deals with Primal Mooncloth, One deals with Spellcloth.

All tailors are able to create these just as you are able to create Mooncloth prior to the Expansion. But when you specialize in one of the 3 choices you will get 2 pieces of cloth every time you transmute instead of 1

Spawns an Angered Nether-wraith. Don't get hit by its Shadow Blast as it hit me for 3306.

If you're a Mage and don't want to fight this mob, simply create a Portal before transmuting Spellcloth. When you're done, click the portal, and voila.

Comment by Hemlocke

So to make Shadowcloth, you have to fly to the back end of Shadowmoon Valley, ride past level 70 air elementals (if you can't fly yet), transmute at the Altar of Shadows, and go all the way back. To make Spellcloth, you have to go up to Netherstorm, and fight off an angry elemental each time.

To make Primal Mooncloth, you have to...um...go to Cenarion Refuge and use the Moonwell.

I can tell you I'll be charging Primal Mooncloth specialists up the yin-yang for my extra Primal Mooncloth.

Comment by Hexagon

I tried making one in the area 52 inn and logging out, since my tailor is only level 60.. the mana wraith was NOT tricked. As soon as I logged back in 15 minutes later... he spawned and killed me. :(

Comment by dreanna

Create spellcloth near one of the satalite instances in netherstorm (Arcatraz etc...) Then when you've made it, just zone in

Comment by raskol

This is ofc on 4 day cooldown as the rest of them.My tip is stand by the graveyard and die when making it. Alot faster than trying to fight the mob.

Comment by Sodam

the mob is seriously easy, unless your a level 60 mule, i mean why not kill it? its free motes!

Comment by Yeoman

Angered Nether-wraith http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=17870 hits with arcane bolts around 650 dmg, so it is considerable damage. Usually i just Frost Nova him and after every Arcane Bolt i recast Mana Shield and just run out of town. He stop following after 10 seconds or so.

But as i recently got few Arcanoweave and Soulcloth set items (arcane resistance), will try to kill him next time. After all, he have only 11k health.

Comment by Mota

is it normal to get Spellcloth x2 when u do it? Or did i have luck?

Comment by elilla

I would recommend depending on build and spec for mages, to spellsteal the scaleskin buff(sheep and steal) from the Scaleskin flayers. It reduces their attack damage by 50% on the first magical hit, it's my experiance that the mob will open up with either a normal arcane attack, or it's large shadow attack(2k+).

Don't forget dampen magic.

Comment by alcy

Any class with silence should be able to take these guys down at lvl 70 without any problems. Just make sure you got cooldowns ready and burn them all and do as much dps as possible - time your silence for his Shadow Blast ability and you should win easily.

Comment by Blish

I usually make my spellcloths near bridges in Netherstorm. This way I can move behind the 'walls' when ever he starts casting arcane missiles or it's shadow spell. I find the mob easy to kill by doing this. - I'm a arcane/frost mage :) And I think everyone should always kill it, for the few motes :p

Comment by Aisenfaire

Before making the spellcloth, make sure to:1. Equip arcane resist and shadow resist gear.2. Cast any magic resist buffs you have on yourself (example: mage armor + dampen magic for mages).

Occasionally (usually when it's at around 20% life), it will also cast shadow bolt. This isn't an instant cast and takes it a while to charge, so if you have any spell-interrupting skills (i.e. Dragon's Breath), use them when you see it charging shadow bolt. This spell hits like a truck, so try not to let it finish casting if you can.

It's also immune to all arcane spells, so counterspell is no good against it.

Comment by feenin

If you're a protection warrior (like myself) or you simply don't want to fight this mob, just make your Spellcloth at The Stormspire. The guards WILL help you kill it. But don't expect to loot it afterward, as the guards will kill it much faster than you can do enough damage to it to be able to loot it.

Comment by dinkdown

I created mine in Stormspire, next to the flightpath, and the Nexus-Guard helped me kill the spawn. Someone mentioned that you couldn't make it in Stormspire, but I did so maybe something changed. The Nexus-Guard did not hurt me at all. Though I am maxed at "friendly" with The Consortium.

Comment by Sartok

I made one of these today outside Area 52, and was confronted by two Netherwraths, I can handle one solo, but these two knocked me out. There was nobody else around crafting, not sure if it was a glitch or something new with the patch... I hope not.

Comment by Banatu

Much easier for a warlock.. Deathcoil, fear, dot it up. Break your own fear with a shadow bolt.. drain life twice and it's dead =)

Just hit 350 tailoring, I'm going for the frozen shadoweave but this is an easy 60g and a skillup to make every four days.

Comment by Phukitol

=p solo'd both mobs today. It wasn't too difficult, but then again someone told me about it and i was expecting it. So i guess there is a potential of 6 fire and 6 mana motes to be gained from making a spellcloth?

Comment by Wildmanwok

Whoever said guards dont help is wrong.I just did it right in front of the ogre guards and they helped.In fact the ogres tanked.

Comment by Crutox

The guards in Cosmowrench helps you kill Angered Nether-wraith.

Comment by makz

the Easiest way to make the cloth and get the motes - go to the bank guy in Area52.Make the spellcloth and if u have any aoe spells, just hit each Wraith once, LOTS of guards will come and kill em you just go back and loot. :)

Poor Spellcloth tailors ... they get their cloth, and then get ... attacked? Yep, no buff at all! A bit imba until you realize the mob is easy to kill with guard help (I use the ogre guards in Area 52) and drops motes ... much better than a buff, imo.

Comment by Yeoman

Angered Nether-wraith is nerfed in terms of damage. I posted 3 month ago, that average damage of each arcane bolt hits you for 650, but now it's 380-500. So it's easier to kill it.

Comment by Elamdri

Make sure to craft your Primal Mooncloth and Shadowcloth BEFORE you craft Spellcloth, the 2 buffs you get from the other 2 CDs help a lot vs. Nether-wraiths.

Comment by Callister

Ogre's helped, didnt get any loot though.

Comment by ANimouz

Well for a normal pve fire mage (10/48/3) this mob is quite easy to dealt with. The tactic to defeat it is quite simple. Put Dampen Magic on you as well as an Mage Armor. When the mob appear use multiple scorch to damage it, when u see that it goes to do arcane volley just counterspell it , then it will start hitting u for a weak (200-400) melee attack for 8 seconds. After u reach it on ~50% it will start casting the shadow explotion thingy , use your Dragon breath there and just make a fireball on it. Now the mob will propably be dead. Gz on your mote awards.

Comment by ceviz

If you have an epic mount and started doing Netherwing quest series in Netherwing Ledge in Shadowmoon valley, then you will notice that there is a high drop rate for mote of mana. So to realise this you need to have an epic mount + you must complete some quest series to get some rep with Netherwing + you need to be herbalist with skill 370 @ least.With my char I collect like 2 or 3 Primal Mana while collecting herbs for quest.

p.s.: for me Mote of Fire is harder to collect...:( lower drop rate and that fire elementals...brrrr..

Comment by laughinghotdog

If you do 30% dmg to these then pull them to the guards you still get credit for the kill ( so you can loot the motes )

So bring em down to < 70% and run to a couple guards.

Comment by norokelt

since patch 3.0.8 here is no more cooldown on this, the same goes for the other special tailorings made in Outland

Comment by EllieBelly

Created spellcloth the other day, there is no cool down, and if you do it near Area 52 the guards DO help. Not a lot, but sometimes they'll snare it which is useful, since it is a bit of a tough mob.

Comment by Parknet

Great comments above. I'm a 72 shadow priest. Here's my question. Is spellcoth worth it? I It takes a lot to make. Imbued bolts of netherweave and lot of motes! Then, to use the cloth to make gear, more junk! Like 560 motes and other agents to make the Spellfire 3 piece set. Hours and hours of farming at my rate. I decided it wasn't worth it and tried to sell my cloth at the AH. Nothin. No sale for any price. Sigh.. I was really excited about this specialization but it seems like I should get over it and move on to Northerend tailoring asap. Any opinions? I guess it would be nice if I was leveling a new character and was able to provide the spellfire set as soon as they were ready for it but for me, I'll outgrow it before i can make it and can't sell the cloth. I look forward to any opinions on whether this cloth is worth making.

Comment by tallisa

I disagree, I'm at 77 right now and the Spellcloth set is still better than what most others at my level seem to have.

Comment by wowitsnyb

As a level 80 Shadow Priest I was able to make 6 Spellcloth for crafting a Spellfire Bag in Netherstorm. After reading the comments above, I went to a relatively well guarded area in Area 52, specifically the building where you buy the PVP armor and weapons for levels 70-85 (Legacy and Conquest quartermasters,etc). The door is guarded by two ogres outside (aka Area 52 Big Bruisers) and two goblins (aka Area 52 Bruisers) inside. I stood pretty much inside the building between the Area 52 Bruisers facing the door and casted Spellcloth. Each time I made a spellcloth, a wraith materialized. The bruisers instantly threw a net down on each wraith, and the ogres came in and smashed them in about three seconds each. All 6 wraiths did not materialize simultaneously but one did each time I casted Spellcloth. The wraiths did not interrupt my casting whatsoever, maybe because I was level 80 or maybe because the Bruisers had all their attention. I did not have to cast anything in retaliation. The Bruisers and Big Bruisers, in summary, completely overwhelmed each wraith each time I casted Spellcloth.

I'm assuming this means you can create as much spellcloth as you want, at least at Level 80.When I level up my warlock, who is also a tailor, I'll attempt again at level 70 and see if it's the same story.

Comment by maeoats

I can confirm Lvl 70 you can create as many as you want I made 6 and I stood between 2 bruisers and barely took dmg, and they killed them fairly fast

Comment by m1005987

Its best to make spellcloth in the towns of netherstorm, that way a npc can kill the spawn. Also there is no more cooldown. :)

Comment by Penglet

As of Patch 4.2(?) the Angered Nether-wraith doesn't seem to be lootable. At least not for me. My priest is making these in Area 52 and the guards are 1-shot-ing the Nether-Wraith and I can't loot. Kinda disappointing after farming all those mats just to make this stuff. I had my hopes up for looting a few motes.

Comment by KyBelle01

I made 8 pieces of the Spellcloth while standing inside the bank in Area 52 and nothing spawned for me to kill. Either it was bugged or the Wraith has been removed and no longer spawns.

Comment by Baelzetror

I made 10 pieces of Spellcloth outside Area 52 and the Angered Nether-wraiths never appeared. I even waited around for a few minutes to see them hoping to farm some motes, but no such luck.
